Impro
Keith Johnstone's involvement with the theatre began when George Devine and Tony Richardson, artistic directors of the Royal Court Theatre, commissioned a play from him. This was in 1956. A few years later he was himself Associate Artistic Director, working as a play-reader and director, in particular helping to run the Writers' Group. The improvisatory techniques and exercises evolved there to foster spontaneity and narrative skills were developed further in the actors' studio then in demonstrations to schools and colleges and ultimately in the founding of a company of performers, called The Theatre Machine. Divided into four sections, 'Status', 'Spontaneity', 'Narrative Skills', and 'Masks and Trance', arranged more or less in the order a group might approach them, the book sets out the specific techniques and exercises which Johnstone has himself found most useful and most stimulating. The result is both an ideas book and a fascinating exploration of the nature of spontaneous creativity.
The 50 Year-Old Millennial
In The 50 Year-Old Millennial, business strategist Marc Petitpas delivers a leadership masterclass driven by a radical proposition: a new culture of servant leadership is the perfect framework to recruit, mentor, educate and promote the talent that will drive business. Millennials, Marc writes, are absolutely correct in demanding a workplace in which their career path is clearly delineated, where they are given consistent feedback and recognized for excellence. The 50 Year-Old Millennial proposes five anchors to install, maintain and renew a servant leadership workplace. 1. How to manage the pivotal connection meeting. 2. How to run short, powerful weekly coaching sessions. 3. How to coach employees on the shop floor. 4. How to shape and implement strategies for personal development. 5. How to sharpen employee results through performance review. Part manifesto, part handbook and always wholly entertaining, The 50 Year-Old Millennial will reshape the way you look at work.

Part-Whole Reasoning in an Object-Centered Framework
In this book, the author develops an object-centered framework with specialized support of the part-of relation based on description logics. These logics are a family of object-centered knowledge representation languages tailored for describing knowledge about concepts and is-a hierarchies of these concepts. In addition to the representation and reasoning facilities provided by description logics for is-a, representation and reasoning facilities are introduced for part-of. Finally, the feasibility and the usefulness of the approach is demonstrated by applying the framework to various areas including domain modeling, agent-oriented scenarios, document management and retrieval, and composite concept learning.
